Love reading mysteries, singing, ringing handbells, but most of all my husband and our two little dogs here in Portland, Oregon.

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters.

And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

ICE is firing pepper bullets and deploying smoke grenades in Portland, even though protesters are remaining in their designated area and peacefully dancing.

The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her.

Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.

So tRump wanted to send the 82nd Airborne Division to Portland...

Is this from the Spanish fascist playbook of 1936 and the city of Guernica, Spain, that was wiped out from the air?

Republicans are causing chaos by trying to force a government shutdown.

Americans have a clear message for Congress:
CANCEL THE CUTS!
LOWER THE COSTS!
SAVE HEALTH CARE!

This is the war (against Antifa) that Trump wants to fight with helicopters and the 200 military troops that he sent to Portland, Oregon giving them a green light to use lethal force.

A silent, inter-faith march near the ICE detention center in Portland, Oregon.

The marchers held flowers. 💐

The Dept. of "War" also needs more money with each new budget. I wonder if Israel is running low on missiles in their "defense" against civilians in Gaza. Doctors without Borders just withdrew. Not safe for staff.
